    Every time Tenn. kicks an extra point or field goal, the player from Kentucky jumps up and lands on about 3 offensive linemen. Their really being strict with that rule this year. I know, just let it go.

    I think after what happened in the LSU/AU game they realized what a stupid rule it was and really relaxed on the enforcement.

    And another blocked field goal in the game where the player that blocked it landed on top of two offensive linemen. Too bad the SEC didn't figure out it was a chitty rule before the LSU/AU game

    Why isn't Phat Phil fussing about it? He should be telling them you called that against LSU, now call it against Kentucky.

    You're giving Phat Phil way too much credit for having a brain when his head is really filled with Krispy Kreme doughnuts. The Vols win in spite of dough boy not because of him.

    Now now...... The player did not come down on two offensive lineman on that block. he landed on his own two feet then fell over onto/near a couple. Take your blinders off.

    The rule is in place more or less to protect from back injuries to lineman. When the defender/blocker leaps into the air and comes down and lands directly on a lineman who is in the process of blocking.

    We must be talking about different plays. I'm talking about the last blocked field goal in the 3rd quarter not the xtra point.

    If you haven't been seeing that guy fall directly on Tenn. linemen, you either haven't been watching this whole game, or you need those "coke bottle" glasses.

    Correct.
